According
to "Marriages of Loudoun County, 1757-1853" by Mary Alice Wertz:
"Loudoun County was formed from Fairfax County, which was primarily Truro
Parish, in 1757. In October 1748, Truro was divided at Difficult
Run and the upper part became Cameron Parish. When Loudoun was created,
it's boundaries were essentially those of Cameron Parish; on the north
it was bounded by the Potomac River; on the south by Prince William County
(which later became Fauquier); on the east by Difficult Run; and on the
west by the Blue Ridge Mountains. In 1770, Shelburne Parish was created
from the western part of Cameron and included, generally, the land west
of Goose Creek running to the Blue Ridge"
